Folk Tales - December

A special edition of Folk Tales to round off 2026!...
Join storyteller Hannah Sneyd and folk trio Mothers Tongue as they reshape the selkie myth for the age of consent. Fluctuating between the seascape and the school gate, between desire and duty, 'The Selkie Who Stayed' asks what we surrender in our bid for security — and whether our inner wildness can ever thrive within four walls.
